  • Phosphoric acid 50 ppm as P
  • the IV of the resulting PET was 0.80 dL/g.
  • Fig. 3 shows the differences in IV between a control made by the same process and having the same composition (although starting IV 0.73 dL/g for the control sample) as sample but without Irganox and the sample containing 1400 ppm Irganox 1010 over 24 hours.
  • Example 3 Stabilizer Added in the Middle Phase
  • PET oligomer was prepared as described for Control A in Example 1, Tables 1 and 2.
  • the oligomer (102.9 g) was then placed in a 500 mL round bottom flask equipped with a nitrogen inlet and mechanical stirrer.
  • a lithium-aluminum catalyst mixture (0.40 g of a solution containing LiOH (2300 ppm Li) and aluminum isopropoxide (3000 ppm Al) in ethylene glycol) and 0.12 g Irganox 1010 were added to the flask. All polymerizations were conducted using a distributed control system under the conditions shown in Table 6 below.
  • Target levels for the finished polymer were 9 ppm Li, 12 ppm Al, and 1200 ppm Irganox 1010 (Sample D).
  • a second polymerization was conducted under the same conditions except that phosphoric acid was added near the end of polymerization (Table 6, stage 10) at a target level of 100 ppm (Sample E).
  • a third polymerization was completed in which Irganox 1010 was added to the oligomer and was targeted at 800 ppm, and the phosphoric acid was added near the end of polymerization (Table 6, stage 10) and had a P target level of 40 ppm (Sample F).
  • the flask and contents Prior to each polymerization, the flask and contents were purged with nitrogen. A steady sweep of nitrogen at 0.4 scfh was maintained over the contents during the 10 minute melting phase prior to applying vacuum.
  • the polymer was subsequently ground and submitted for analytical testing. Data for the resulting PET polymers are shown in Tables 7-10. Haze levels in PET were measured using a Hach Ratio Turbidimeter. The haze was measured by nephelometry. A 2.3 gram sample was dissolved into 30 mL of a solvent (30% hexafluoroisopropanol, 70% methylene chloride) and placed in a 8 dram vial. The vial was capped and spun on a spinning wheel to stir for 24 hr. The solution in the vial was then read directly in the Hach Ratio Turbidimeter. A beam of light was directed through a test sample.
  • Detectors were placed to measure the 90-degree light scatter, the forward scattered light and their light transmitted through the sample. By electronically conditioning the ratio of the output of the 90-degree detector to the sum of the other two detectors, excellent linearity and color rejection was attained. The design of the optical system makes stray light negligible.
  • DEG diethylene glycol
  • Fig. 5 shows the plotted IV data from Tables 8-10.
  • Example 4 Stabilizer Added at the End of the Polymerization
  • PET was produced in a continuous process as described in Example 2 under the conditions given in Example 2 but without the addition of phosphoric acid at the end of the process and without the addition of Irganox 1010.
  • Approximately 100 g of the PET was then dried thoroughly overnight under vacuum and placed in a flask under nitrogen along with the desired amount of Irganox 1010 (see Table 11).
  • the flask was equipped with a mechanical stirrer and submerged in a molten metal bath at 278 0 C.
  • the PET was allowed to melt without stirring for 45 minutes. Afterwards, slow stirring (about 10 rpm) was begun to complete the melting of the pellets.
  • Phosphoric acid (0.008 g in Sample G and 0.016g in Sample H) was added when melting was complete.
  • the stir speed was gradually increased to 30 rpm over a 5-minute period and stirring was continued for 10 minutes. Samples of the resulting blends were ground and submitted for analysis. The results are located in Tables 11-
  • Fig. 6 shows the plotted IV data from Tables 12-13.
  • Phenolic compounds other than Irganox 1010 have been shown to stabilize PET to molecular weight degradation. These compounds were tested by blending the PET produced in a continuous phase process as described in Example 2, but without phosphoric acid being added late in the process and without Irganox 1010. BHT (2,6-di-terf-butyl-4-methylphenol), vitamin E and nonylphenol were blended using the following procedure: PET (100 g) was dried for 24 hours at 1 1O 0 C under vacuum, melted for 50 minutes at 278 0 C and then blended separately with BHT, vitamin E and nonylphenol for 10 minutes at 30 rpm in a round bottom flask. All of these compounds showed the ability to dramatically reduce molecular weight loss in PET in air at 192 0 C, as illustrated in Fig. 7.
